We have encountered this issue/bug too. Are there any plans to fix it in the future?
I just tested the example above. I cannot fully reproduce this, as for me it just compiles without an error but also the change is invisible. You (@jtappin) did not post a full MWE but just a snippet, and the context might have made the difference (e.g. \micron did not work for me and I had to replace with $\mu$
.
The problem with visibility is easy to fix. I just tried with latexdiff --append-textcmd=multicolumn
and at least for the example it works.
Most likely, this will be default from (future) 1.3.4 onwards but I need to do some testing first.
As show, this is now implemented. Hopefully it also fixes your problems although I never managed to reproduce them.
